Option 2: 26°

Option 3: 27°

Option 4: 28°

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 28°


Solution : Given that $\cos (3 \alpha)=\sin \left(\alpha-22^{\circ}\right)$ and $3 \alpha<90^{\circ}$,
$⇒\cos (3 \alpha)=\cos \left\{90^{\circ}-(\alpha-22^{\circ}\right)\}$ [$\because \cos (90^{\circ} - \theta) = \sin \theta$]
$⇒3 \alpha = 90^{\circ}-\alpha+22^{\circ}$
$⇒4 \alpha = 112^{\circ}$
$⇒\alpha = 28^{\circ}$
Hence, the correct answer is 28°.
